The Clay County Sheriff’s Office will conduct its annual ceremony in recognition of Police Memorial Week tonight at Ridgeview High School at 7pm. The school is located on Madison Avenue in Orange Park, one block west of Blanding Boulevard. The ceremony will be held inside the school’s cafetorium.

Law enforcement personnel from various local agencies and from across our region will attend this event held to recognize the sacrifice of men and women who died in the line of duty while protecting their communities.
